I'd have to agree with most of what was shared by your contributors. And Seb's
question/comments at the end may ring loudest for me. Im 45 next month and
have been a chronic magazine buyer/reader since I was sitting on drug store
floors memorizing everything I could from the BMX Plus, BMX Action or
Motocross Action or Dirt Wheels or…..mags while my mother did the purchases.
Now….what was once (only a few years ago) a 20 dollar a week periodical habit
has shrunk to zero dollars. My internet connection is vital to my income
earning, so my monthly service provider bill feels free of charge to me. I
imagine you media folk are under a great deal of pressure to keep pumping out
material for your websites with no natural time frame to work in like back in
the monthly publication days. Regurgitating the same press releases amongst
you can't help your integrity rating from us olds, but I am sure it helps keep
the site visitations numbers up. NSMB enjoys a level of authenticity and
maturity (sorry if that last one is a bad word) in my MTB world of riding and
reading as it has almost always provided an original and or inside perspective
for me to enjoy between work and rides.---and back in the day, you closed the
forum for a bit to stop the hating….if I remember correctly….so in my mind you
have also been a responsible social force. Please continue asking the
questions of your industry and yourselves, cuz that is what is separating you
from the temporaries thriving in the, "infancy or honeymoon" phase of our
online experience.
